Hmmm....

“Being satisfied with what we already have is a magical golden key to being alive in a full, unrestricted and inspired way. One of the major obstacles to what is traditionally called enlightenment is resentment, feeling cheated, holding a grudge about who you are, where you are, what you are. We need to realise that any wisdom that exists, exists in what we already have. Our wisdom is all mixed up with what we call our neurosis. Our brilliance, our juiciness, our spiciness, is all mixed up with our craziness and our confusion, and therefore it doesn’t do any good to try to get rid of our so-called negative aspects, because in that process we also get rid of our basic wonderfulness. We can lead our life so as to become more awake to who we are and what we’re doing, rather than trying to improve or change or get rid of who we are and what we’re doing. The key is to wake up, to become more alert, more inquisitive and curious about ourselves.” from “The Wisdom of No Escape”, by Pema Chodron.

I went to visit my new niece again last night, there were SO many people there though, the room was chockers (between Ally's visitors and the great big italian family celebrating the new arrival situated in the bed next to Ally's) I didn't get to hold her this time, but I did manage to snap a pic on my phone camera (forgot to take my proper camera...idjit!). It's amazing how much she has changed even in a day, her cheeks have puffed out and she's had a bath now and is much redder now she's not covered in that bluish stuff they're covered in at birth... I bumped into mum downstairs on my way into the hospital and as we were heading up to the ward she told me everyone who had been to visit that day had said how much she looks like my brother, and she does, but mum said she's the spitting image of me when I was a baby and I have to get my baby photos out and bring one next time for comparison... Poor Ally looked completely exhausted and there were SO many people there that I only stayed about 20 minutes but they should be going home today and I will go visit them on the weekend when I can spend some more time and it won't be as crowded or overwhelming for Ally... My mum has gone mad with buying pink things, she even bought a teeny gold id bracelet with pink crystals set into it and had Tameeka's name engraved on it... this is going to be one spoilt little girl! I'm going shopping for presents on the weekend.. I am NOT buying her anything baby-pink!! With my brother as her dad, she's more than likely going to be a complete tomboy anyhow!

Oh the irony...

You are Form 1, Goddess: The Creator.

"And The Goddess planted the acorn of life.
She cried a single tear and shed a single drop
of blood upon the earth where she buried it.
From her blood and tear, the acorn grew into
the world."

Some examples of the Goddess Form are Gaia (Greek),
Jehova (Christian), and Brahma (Indian).
The Goddess is associated with the concept of
creation, the number 1, and the element of
earth.
Her sign is the dawn sun.

As a member of Form 1, you are a charismatic
individual and people are drawn to you.
Although sometimes you may seem emotionally
distant, you are deeply in tune with other
people's feelings and have tremendous empathy.
Sometimes you have a tendency to neglect your
own self. Goddesses are the best friends to
have because they're always willing to help.
